Perhaps because he had woken up early in the morning and tensed his body in nervousness all day, his entire body ached like he had muscle soreness. Just a moment ago, Dohae had grabbed his hair, causing a little blood to seep from his scalp. However, Yijae, who had taken a bath and was now lying on his futon, recalled the day's events and smiled pleasantly. “……Friend.” Yijae had never dreamed his first friend would be someone as wonderful as Jaeha. He thought of Jaeha, who had treated him…-

THUMP THUMP! “Hey, Kang Jaeha! You’re in here! I know you are, so open up right now.” The violent noise, as if threatening to break the door down, made Yijae’s tears vanish. As he flinched, letting out a sharp, hitching breath, Jaeha’s brow furrowed. THUMP THUMP! “Hey, Kang Jaeha!” At the renewed banging and shouting, Jaeha pressed a hand to his forehead, looking vexed. Yijae’s face, terrified by the loud noise, grew paler by the second. Watching him, Jaeha immediately got…-

It was that person. The one who saved him from the warehouse……. How is this man here? As Yijae came face to face with the man whose face he hadn't forgotten for a single day since then, his heart began to pound. “What are you do- no, wait. More importantly, you were a college student?” Jaeha, having spotted Yijae, stared blankly at his face as if he still couldn't believe it. At first, he thought he was dreaming. But the face, still covered here and there with wounds, was definitely…-

Dohae raised his hand once again and slapped Yijae’s already swollen cheek. As if his anger hadn’t subsided, Dohae continued to vent his frustration on Yijae to his heart's content, only stopping when he saw Yijae’s tightly shut mouth. Even for Dohae, it was annoying to have to beat him like this every time, wondering how many more times he had to be hit to come to his senses. He took his wallet out of his pocket and tossed a few bills onto Yijae’s face as if giving alms. “I have no…-

"He seems to have mild hypothermia, and his condition is not good due to overlapping malnutrition. As you can see, the bruises are also quite severe." “Malnutrition?” Jaeha frowned and asked, wondering for a moment if he had misheard. It wasn't that he didn't know the word malnutrition, but it was the first time in his life he had seen someone with it. "It seems he hasn't been receiving proper nutrition for a long time, as his bones and organs are weak and smaller than average. Moreover,…-

On blinked like a foolish ox before slaughter, bewildered. ‘My, what in the world is this state of affairs…?’ White breath puffed from On's mouth, agape in confusion. ‘Wasn't he supposed to be the grandson of the great Hwanjo Minister…?’ Sim Wigyeom, the man slated to be the princess's husband, was the grandson of Sim Yeongseon. This Sim Yeongseon had served three times as the Hwanjo Minister, a position of power in the Hwanjo Kingdom second only to the king. As a provincial…-

For a moment, she flinched and ducked her shoulders at the presence moving toward her. Thud. However, contrary to her expectations, the man's hand did not reach for On. Instead, he simply straightened a wooden wild goose figurine that had been placed crookedly on the prepared table. "I am Sim Wigyeom. Though this bond did not begin of my own will and is tied by power and circumstance, appearing as fleeting as the morning dew, I intend to uphold the honor of my family and fulfill my duties with…-

It was the kind of pitch-dark evening when only monsters would be wandering about. At the gate of the princess’s residence in Hwanjo Kingdom—the one and only golden-branch princess’s dwelling—stood a single flower palanquin, waiting to carry palace maid Kim On. “Tsk, you look as if you’ve just received royal favor.” So said On’s senior, Court Lady Chu, as her gaze swept over On. Fine makeup, a gold-bamboo hairpin, her body wrapped in fine silk, her face and figure hidden beneath…-

A vein throbbed on Wigyeom’s temple as he stood before the delicate little woman who was trembling in bewilderment at the current situation. It was a brutish desire, unimaginable for the Wigyeom of his past life who had pursued chastity and integrity. He did not want to lose this moment. Every single second with On was precious. He didn't want to let even a fraction of it go to waste. ‘Why must you be so adorable and lovely, my wife?’ If he had his way, he would have thrown all…-

The man’s hand, hot against the collar of her jeogori, urgently caressed the nape of On’s neck with an almost poignant desperation. ‘W-What is this…?’ On was seized with shock. This was supposed to be the first night between two people who had never met, yet his actions were so intensely intimate and hasty that it felt bizarre, as if they were lovers eloping in the dead of night for a secret tryst. “Heut, w-wait… that is….” As he followed her movements, the man’s shoulder…-
